A COcyber policy-oriented workshop brought together stakeholders to validate the project’s review of Europe’s civilian–defence cybersecurity policy landscape and identify key gaps for future policy action. Insights from the discussion will inform the development of COcyber’s upcoming policy recommendations to strengthen civil–military cybersecurity cooperation across Europe.

We spoke with the COcyber Batch #2 Ambassadors to reflect on their journey and gather their insights on Europe’s cybersecurity future. Yugo Neumorni brings long-standing leadership experience in digital transformation and cybersecurity governance, and values the ambassadorship for strengthening civil–defence cooperation, trust, and strategic alignment across Europe.

The second cohort of COcyber Ambassadors joins forces across civilian and defence cybersecurity to strengthen European digital resilience through policy, training, and cross-sector collaboration. Representing seven experts from five countries, the programme empowers ambassadors to connect siloed communities, share knowledge, and promote dual-use innovation across Europe.
